Body Part Levels of Intimacy

Though it varies between countries, and likewise cultures, the way you position different body parts between couples, such as the head, face, lips, chest, hands, and hips can determine the intimacy level of a pose. Understanding the level of intimacy that each body part presents can allow photographers to heighten the playfulness or intimacy of a pose.

If you look at the 07:40 mark you see him holding his hands in his pockets during an intimate moment. I see that a lot during this course. It gives me the feeling he doesn’t care about her? I would think never pose the groom with a hand in his pocket during intimate moments, because it takes away the moment like he does not really care.
